Tahoe Toyota Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 (edited) 😏 Curious if anybody has any idea around how many Toyota motorhomes were made, how many might still be on the road today ?. Wonder how many ended up in a scrap yard or are still in some back yard. Edited August 19, 2020 by Tahoe Toyota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek up North Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Anyone's guess, especially since nobody knows how many were built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frontboat Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 There are lots in California. When I was in San Diego 2 years ago there were 5 in same RV park. Lots in SW USA too. Minnesota too I think as I met 4 people with them in Arizona. AS long salt doesn't rust them. I'm purely guessing but i would say 40,000 still around in some some shape. Tough little buggers I tell ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linda s Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 My little town in northern California, about 30,000 people, has at least a dozen Sunraders and most of them are shorties. Lots of other Toyota motorhomes too, many of them lived in. Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REALLYRURAL Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 There are still a lot of them out there. I see lots of them in Maine with California plates. Most are in need of restoration. Some look nice but they are just shells. However, if you pick one up for the right price just go have some fun with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REALLYRURAL Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Here is an interesting one located in Maine. It has three axles... https://maine.craigslist.org/rvs/d/rollinsford-toyota-heritage-1980-vintage/7183658510.html Toyota Heritage 1980 Vintage - $2,000 (Berwick) image 4 of 7 © craigslist - Map data © OpenStreetMap (google map) 1980 Toyota Heritage condition: faircylinders: 4 cylindersdrive: fwdfuel: gasodometer: 82705paint color: whiterv type: class Ctransmission: manual This genuine one of a kind 1980 Toyota Heritage RV is a fixer-upper. It’s a perfect project for someone looking to hit the open road in the future or possible tiny house project/COVID project. It was running last year but when battery was recharged this spring, the engine did not turn over, may just need fresh fuel. Part of the roof would need to be repaired but most of the exterior needs are merely superficial. It has been tarped for the last 2 winters, preventing further roof damage. This gem needs a bit of work, but the foundation is good. When considering a classic style, such as this, the possibilities are nearly endless. With a bit of work, an option like this can be returned to its former glory providing an RV unlike most that you see on the road. The engine is the famous Toyota R20 engine with inline 4 cylinder and manual transmission. It has a newer gas refrigerator, the original gas heater and electric stove. Sleeps 4, 2 in overcab bunk and 2 on a dining table/bed conversion setup. $2000. Please email for interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
